There were days when things happened that I knew I wanted to write down, but I got so behind that it was frustrating. Finally after the holidays I knew I wanted to start it again, so I went back through pictures, Facebooks, texts, everything I could think of & managed to fill in the rest of the year. Now that I'm at a point where I'm on the second year, it's a lot more fun since I have things to look back on from last year. It's especially funny since my son is about the same age as Shane, and I can hardly believe the difference in all his "firsts" from last year & where he is now. It's tough, but stick with it, it's totally worth it!Breehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05187644809917082275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008426604560109471.post-34470942062087969922013-01-22T19:24:37.408-08:002013-01-22T19:24:37.408-08:00First off, can I just say I'm so relieved to h...First off, can I just say I'm so relieved to hear that someone else has had a hard time with follow-thru on awesome projects such as these? I have Amazon one-click on my smartphone (which really can be dangerous), and bought this book - it will be here soon. Thanks for the idea! I have already tried the index card per day for the entire year - that one never picked up off the ground. Just a heads up to another great idea I pinned on Pinterest - a jar of good thoughts from 2013 - you fill it up with little notes and read it on New Year's Eve. So far, so good - it helps that it's clear - so we can see the notes filling up (colorful paper is also rad). Everyone knows about it - even my five year old twins, so we can help fill it up together.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07839131108528403942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008426604560109471.post-44913489294981945442013-01-22T15:51:24.742-08:002013-01-22T15:51:24.742-08:00I love this little journal.

Gives my life a rhythmm. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine. I keep it here at the computer and I pick it up after I sign off for the night.

Click that. Then it will take you to a new screen where you pick where you will get your pictures from. On the top right of that screen will be an Instagram button. From there it makes you give permission to access your Instagram account. Grant it permission and pick which ones you want it to upload. I haven't had good success at getting it to do more than 20-50 at a time though... So I do it pretty regularly, to keep it up to date.Juleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11869658095696574420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008426604560109471.post-20206333249734211612013-01-22T08:10:41.973-08:002013-01-22T08:10:41.973-08:00Help.....I love your idea but AS USUAL....i have n...Help.....I love your idea but AS USUAL....i have no idea how to get my instagram pics into shutterfly. i have googled for tutorials and don't seem to find any guidance. can you offer any resources???Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008426604560109471.post-37888128787597182082013-01-21T21:06:44.027-08:002013-01-21T21:06:44.027-08:00It **is** going to be rad!!!

I knew I needed it to be really open ended... too many parameters and I stress and quit! So, I just told myself to take pictures of the everyday... of really mundane stuff and really fun stuff, too. I averaged about 35-45 "keeper" photos a month... not necessarily one each day, but it all wound up pretty representative.<br /><br />Anyway... looking back now... I am so, so thankful for those photos. My youngest is just two months younger than Shane. So, much of that year was her 1st year. So huge. <br /><br />Do it! Do it while they're still little! Go, Julie, go! :)Jaccihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06104879143621094527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008426604560109471.post-28231580940562650282013-01-21T20:01:26.849-08:002013-01-21T20:01:26.849-08:00What a great way to be intentional about our photo...What a great way to be intentional about our photo taking, journaling, and overall keepsaking.

I like the text idea. And one per day does limit it. Now you have me thinking. I did my book on shutterfly too and I didn't know you could do it directly from your phone. Thanks for the tip.

I have had several entries that say "made dinner at home" or "watched Full House with the kids." Sometimes I feel sad that that's all I have to say, but then other times I'm OK with it because I'm still capturing life-- even if making dinner was as about exciting as life got that day! <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02915938383530341228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008426604560109471.post-47746871766052425762013-01-18T00:39:31.508-08:002013-01-18T00:39:31.508-08:00I've seen that journal online but ended up usi...I've seen that journal online but ended up using my planner from Target instead. (Believe it or not, I have made almost an identical goal for myself) I still have the little boxes to write things on the calendar but I jot a sentence or 2 down about our day on the weekly pages that have more room. <br />Amazingly I'm not behind as I don't feel any pressure...it's a wonderful exercise actually!!!! I love the layouts you've chosen. Isn't Instagram wonderful for a project like this?<br /><br />Instead of a photobook I will once a month transfer the information to a blog draft so when I make my blog into a book I can pull that post from my drafts right into my book (blurb.com is who I use for this type of book). I am excied to put more of the everyday moments in my books rather than only the ones that make it into a regular blog post.<br /><br />MamaBearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04896263778296383533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008426604560109471.post-78020638020455083812013-01-17T22:22:48.808-08:002013-01-17T22:22:48.808-08:00Love this idea!!
